Calving season has started, long lines to Ndutu

HerdTracker update 25 Dec 2014 by Nomad Tanzania

Hi Carel,

Happy Christmas! This just in from Nomad guide Emmanuel Njawa:

Things are starting to warm up around here after a few days of rain. Some substantial herds of wildebeest are now coming in from Kusini direction, possibly Maswa woodlands and are presently spreading between the Hidden Valley, Miti Mitatu, the minor and big swamps coming towards the eastern Ndutu woodlands.

We even saw a few hundred gnus galloping towards Naibadad possibly to start filling the plains overlooking Ngorongoro highlands. We're also seeing big numbers of cheetahs (we saw, in three hours, three mothers all with between three to five cubs) and lots of lions.
